Four lanes of traffic
that come to a halt...
and the flashing of brake lights,
only seems to put me in a trance,
a reflection of my past,
and snap, I come back,
and its not the right day
for traffic to slow in this way,
but these feelings now want let go,
and traffic is unwilling to move,
only giving freedom for these
thoughts to grow,
and just wanting to get home,
I find myself now trapped in the memories of you,
With no place to go....
and daylight is turning to twilight....
giving more power to the blinking lights,
intrenching thoughts, now focus on pain,
and I watch the white clouds fight with the blue,
and how much importance I put into you,
I slip on sunglasses, for fear I am gonna break,
And I fight with valor, not wanting a tear to waste,
I close and open my eyes,
snapping back, to see dancing lights,
and movement of traffic through
two cars that lay outward,
and debri is scattered,
with no apparent injuries
and no more blinking lights,
moving foward now seems clearer...
and taking off my sunglasses,
I wipe my eyes,
as I try to leave these thoughts
with those blinking lights.
